[rabbitmq-discuss] cluster crash when setting ha-mode=nodes

[Carl Hörberg]

Nope, nothing in the logs. But on another cluster I just did rabbitmqctl stop_app and reset on one node, without setting ha-nodes first, and then it worked fine do decommission it.

It's hard to guess what might be going on from this description. Do you  
have anything in the logs?
